Who we are and what we do
A Pan-European network
A Europe-wide network of national, regional, domain and thematic
aggregators, enabling cultural institutions to share their collections online on
Europeana and open it up to new audiences
Connecting content and people
Aggregators work with cultural institutions and collectors to gather authentic,
trustworthy and robust data and make it accessible to Europeana, education
clouds, research infrastructures, creatives, developers and the general public.

12 pan-European
thematic and domain
aggregators.
25 national and
regional aggregators,
gathering content
from cultural
institutions across
Europe.
Aggregators work
with thousands of
museums, galleries,
libraries, archives,
audiovisual archives,
collectors and
communities.
Aggregators oﬀer
advice and support in
digitisation, content
description, licensing,
media formats
accessibility,
multilingualism and in
domain and subject
vocabularies.
Network Culture partners Expertise
Aggregators are the backbone of content supply to Europeana, connecting and
promoting Europeana to their networks and communities.

Member States and
regional authorities
are the main funders
of national and
regional aggregators.
The domain and
thematic aggregators
are co-funded by their
members and the EU.
Aggregators supply
around 90% of all
content in Europeana.
47+ million items
including digital
images, texts, videos,
sounds and 3D objects
from Europe’s diverse
cultural heritage.
Aggregators are agents
of change, encouraging
investments in new
technologies and
digital skills, and
contributing to
digitization strategies
at national and
European levels.
Finance Content base Impact

Our goals
• Aggregators are catalysts for digital transformation in
cultural institutions.
• Aggregators support thousands of cultural heritage
institutions and their communities to build Digital Europe.
• Aggregators foster digital culture, promote open
standards and encourage the free ﬂow of data across
borders for re-use in applications for education, tourism
and leisure.

What we oﬀer
Aggregators use
standards,
vocabularies and linked
data and promote their
use by cultural
institutions oﬀering
case studies and
translations to ease
their uptake
Aggregators
contribute actively to
the development of
international and
national domain and
subjects standards
Aggregators work
actively to improve
and enrich data and
content, promote
international
recommendations for
best practices in
digital culture and
support to cultural
heritage professionals
Technology Standards Quality
Aggregators provide
tools, services and
infrastructures (data
repositories, cloud
storage, metadata
harvesting, metadata
mapping, enrichment
services, APIs and
portals)
Helpdesks are
available for cultural
institutions

What we oﬀer
Aggregators are well
placed to reach out to
institutions,
communities and
enthusiasts to develop
metadata strategies
that connect objects
and collections to
audiences, bridging
generation and
perspective gaps
between cultural
heritage content,
professionals and
Europeana users
More than 10
thematic collections
launched on
Europeana, based on
content provided by
aggregators.
Active role in raising
awareness of
Europeana amongst
European citizens.
100% of content
carries a rights label.

“We believe in a new connection between
museums and participants based on the active
participations of people to the production,
creation and valorization of culture”

“We believe in new ways of experiencing cultural sites, never more passive,
where knowledge will be built and not only transmitted.Where the participant will
be involved and creating another form of art.”

This exhibition is a great retrospective
of José de Guimarães' graphic work,
which presents a representative
selection of his engraving produced
from the 60's until the end of 2018.
The exhibition is based on the collection
of works that the author has been
donating to BNP, where there is a copy
of all his engraving, totaling over 400
construction.

Jorge de Sena was born in Lisbon
on November 2, 1919.
Commemoration of 100 years of
his birth with materials from the
personal archive of the author
From family with navy tradition,
and commanding father of the
Merchant Navy, the sea seemed
to be his destination. He was a
young cadet, traveling in Sagres
to Brazil and then to Africa
Starts writing poetry at 16.
His work, in addition to more than
12 books of poetry, encompasses
the novel, the theater and the
translation of works of ﬁction
such as Hemingway, Faulkner,
Caldwell, Peacock, Greene and
poetry.

Fernando Oliveira was one of the most
curious ﬁgures of the sixteenth century.
In early 1536 its grammar of Portuguese
language was printed in Lisbon (whose
only known example is preserved in
BNP).
In 1555 published the Art of War of the
Sea, an innovative treatise on nautical
themes (of which the BNP retains a
copy).
This exhibition rehearses a
recomposition of Fernando de Oliveira's
book universe, including not only his
own writings, but above all the many
titles that are summoned in his works
and which he would have consulted or
even possessed at some point in his
complex existential path.

This collection day will be the ﬁrst time we will
be able to put something online.’
